Lake Lanier Waterfront Homes And What You Can Expect Of Sales Price Versus List Price Ratios!

If you're in the market for a Lake Lanier waterfront home, you may be wondering what kind of sales price to list price ratios you can expect. The good news is that Lake Lanier is a highly desirable area, with a strong real estate market, so you can generally expect to see healthy sales price to list price ratios.

What is a sales price to list price ratio? This is simply the ratio of the actual sales price of a home to its listing price. For example, if a home was listed at $500,000 and sold for $450,000, the sales price to list price ratio would be 90%.

According to recent data, the sales price to list price ratios for Lake Lanier waterfront homes during the past five years has been consistently strong. You can review our five-year summary in the chart and table below.  



There are a few factors that contribute to these strong sales price to list price ratios. Firstly, Lake Lanier is a highly desirable location for both full-time residents and vacation home buyers. The beautiful scenery, recreational opportunities, and proximity to major cities like Atlanta make it an attractive place to live or vacation.

Secondly, the real estate market at Lake Lanier is competitive, with a limited supply of waterfront homes available. This means that buyers may be more willing to pay a premium for a home that meets their needs and preferences.

Finally, the COVID-19 pandemic has also had an impact on the real estate market, with many buyers looking for homes with more space and outdoor amenities. Lake Lanier waterfront homes, with their beautiful lakefront settings and ample outdoor space, have become even more appealing in this context.

In summary, if you're looking to buy or sell a Lake Lanier waterfront home, you can generally expect to see strong sales price to list price ratios. However, it's important to work with a knowledgeable local real estate agent who can help you understand the nuances of the market and make informed decisions.

Last Minute Tidying And Cleaning Prior To Your Next Home Showing! Here Are A Few Tips!


We have all received a call or text from a friend or family, saying they are just around the corner, and are stopping by. When selling your home, this may be more common than you think. Buyers may request a showing appointment while they are nearby. No need to panic. We have some last-minute tidying and decluttering tips.

Step 1. Nominate a clutter hiding place in each room
A coffee table with drawers for the living room, which is where you can stash the clutter that habitually builds up there. Nothing stays in the drawer once the guests have left, so it never gets too full for emergency use next time.

Repeat this idea in the entryway, with baskets for shoes, and a closet with a basket in the bottom for everything else to be (temporarily) dropped into, in the guest bath, a vanity with drawer space, and in the kitchen, everything goes into the dishwasher.

Step 2. Open Windows
Opening windows for just 10 minutes can make a stale room instantly fresher. Keep a full stock of scented candles to make your home smell nice. A house that smells nice seems cleaner than one that isn't.

Step 3. Wipe Down Surfaces with a Scented Spray
Guests tend to spend most of their time in the kitchen. It is the normal gathering place, so wiping down the surfaces is a must-do. Use a scented, natural cleaning spray for this job. It does the task well, but, more importantly, doesn't leave a chemical smell behind that will clash with your candles. It's mild enough to use in the living room, too, just in case you gather there.

Step 4. Flip and Fluff Pillows
'Flip and fluff', meaning quickly turning all the cushions and pillows around, giving each a quick bash as you go. It's quick but effective.

A Few Housing Market Predictions For 2023


Housing Market Predictions for 2023

The market will remain opportunistic for those who approach the market with expert counsel and guidance and a true understanding of the advantages of homeownership. This is especially the case when you view, in proper perspective, the historic landscape of the market over the years and the true value of homeownership and wealth equity growth and preservation through real estate.

According to Lawrence Yun, chief economist for the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), supply and demand issues will continue to keep prices elevated through the end of 2022. This trend will continue in 2023 but at lower levels. Yun added he doesn’t see a repeat of 2007–2008 or “a second real estate bubble” where home values dropped dramatically due to a variety of factors. Instead, Yun sees home values to be up or down 5% in 2023.

Even with inflation and rising mortgage rates, Yun also said it is still a good time to invest in real estate. If there is any benefit to inflation, it is those who have a long-term loan, and a mortgage is the biggest debt most people take on in their lives, per Yun.

Those that are jumping into the real estate market now, can also refinance even two years down the road when mortgage rates are more favorable. Homebuyers can find savings the longer a house is on the market. While homes nationally priced right in desirable locations will never be on the market long, and often go for well above the list price. NAR found that 51% of homes are sold at or above the list price.

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Real Estate Advisor - September 2022




Three Things to Know about Today’s Housing Market

Housing inventory is low, buyer demand is high. According to Freddie Mac, we’re about 3 million homes short of meeting current housing demand, and the 1.2 million single family housing starts predicted for next year simply aren’t enough for what the National Association of REALTORS® labels a “supply crisis.” Some of the demand is a result of institutional investing opportunities and some of it is the greater ease of living afforded by an influx of work-from-home jobs. Translation: If you’ve been looking for the right window to sell to get top value for your property, this is it. Buyers want to buy ASAP.

Call it a correction, not a crash. The subprime lending that greatly contributed to the 2008 market crash is not the reason for our current market correction, which is slowing the rate of home price appreciation. If current rates hold steady at or around 6%, expect home price appreciation to slow to 4-6%, says research firm AEI Housing. Before this correction, prices were simply appreciating at unsustainable speeds and now, what we’re experiencing is a more balanced market. It’s like the housing market is an endurance athlete and it just ran a long-distance race. Now, having accomplished that epic milestone, it’s sitting and taking a breather, allowing us all to recuperate from the chaos of 2020 and 2021.

Inflation is no reason to put your real estate goals on pause. Think about it this way: You find the home of your dreams, and the mortgage rate is just below 6%, higher than it was several months ago but still historically low. Now, you make the decision - the home is yours and the rate is locked in as a hedge against future inflation. This concept only applies to home buying; rents are subject to inflation and will continue to rise as inflation does.



REAL ESTATE IS YOUR BEST LONG-TERM INVESTMENT

In a recent 2022 Gallup Poll, survey respondents were asked to give their opinion about the very best long-term investment a person can make. They could choose between bonds, cryptocurrency, savings account/CDs, gold, mutual funds/stocks, and real estate. Do you know what people overwhelmingly picked?

Real estate

Of everyone polled, 45% believe real estate is the best long-term investment option. Stocks/mutual funds received only 18%; gold garnered 15%; savings accounts and CDs got 10%; cryptocurrency was at 8%; and 3% of respondents favored bonds. Even if you add up the percentages from the second and third-most popular options (stocks/mutual funds and gold), you still get less than the amount of people who believe in the long-term viability and potential of real estate as a future wealth-builder.

And real estate deserves this top spot on the 2022 Gallup Poll. While the average American gained $64,000 in equity over the last 12 months by owning a home (thanks for the stats, CoreLogic), homeownership also provides financial advantages beyond the sale of price-appreciated property, like tax benefits and passive income for those renting out their space.

A home is a universal need, and that is exactly what makes it such a solid long-term investment. In the short-term, prices can fluctuate, and it’s critical to partner with an experienced real estate professional who can help you navigate the market to secure the best price possible. In the long-term, a home you bought 10 years ago will always be worth more. It’s why Gallup Poll survey respondents chose “real estate” as the best long-term investment over anything else, and why the smartest decision you can make in your future is to buy a home now.
